Washington State is flipping the script on home football games this season, moving the Cougars’ sideline to the south side of Gesa Field — right under the press box — so visiting teams now face the student section head-on. The move aims to crank up home-field energy, reduce post-game collisions, and upgrade the game-day experience with new turf, a video board, sound system, and LED lights — all set for the opener on Sept. 19. Fans can adjust season tickets via phone or email, and die-hards can snag a piece of history: memorabilia from the old turf, including end zone and Cougar logo fragments.

"Call your mom." - A Message From Corey

The PAC-12 just got wilder with an eight-team format, bringing in Boise State and San Diego State—and even flexing the season finale to chase that coveted playoff bid. Oregon State, led by new coach JaMarcus Shephard (DeBoer’s former offensive assistant) and QB Malik Murphy, aims for a 4-win bounce-back. Meanwhile, Washington State, under second-year head coach Kirby Moore (offensive coordinator by trade), rolls with a revamped staff—Matt Miller on offense and Trent Bray (ex-OSU head coach) on defense—and sophomore QB Caden Pinnick at the helm. Two teams, two new coaches, one chaotic new conference—watch them crash and burn—or rise.
